If you saw the highlights of his final game on TRT people might have to review their opinions as to his ability. He laid on their first from the left wing and then calmly ran through for a solo goal for their 2-0 win. He hardly had much chance here, certainly little service (Benteke, Murray, Gayle also suffered!) Time will tell with which team and in which league he will come good.

Clearly,many teams other than the one managed by a dinosaur!

I'l tell you what team he won't come good in. Crystal Palace. This thread should be closed. He does not play for us.

It's frustrating, but these things happen in football. Bigger clubs than us have had similar experiences. I think part of the problem was that we needed a player to come in and hit the ground running and he didn't do that, for whatever reason.

Scored against Chelsea on his third subbing but was unfairly disallowed, never given a chance after that.

Let's face it Sorloth had some serious competition, a bloke on £130k a week, a real goal machine who had scored 5 goals in 3 seasons. Defies logic.

I think its time to move on. Yes, it appears the Board made a mistake with this deal. It happens. They have made other mistakes along the way, but have also done some tremendous business that tends to get overlooked (Ayew, Cahill, Kouyate, Tomkins etc). It's swing and roundabouts.

Wrote off much in the same way as Murray was, and Benteke has persevered with Probably a decision even Pardew regrets and we haven't really found a replacement since. What I want to know is how can the club he plays for afford to buy him if they are subject to FFP breach and a Europe ban? Can they afford the 6m clause with loss of income after the 2 year loan?

From what I understand they only have the option to buy at the end of the 2 year loan. If a big offer came in for him now then they couldnt sell him without negotiating with Palace. So maybe the best outcome would be a big offer to come in now .
